George Clooney's father says the twins look just like their dad: Listen

Says everyone is doing "great".

George Clooney's newborn twins look just like him!

At least that's what granddad Nick Clooney said.

Just two hours after international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney gave birth to Alexander and Ella, George, 56, introduced the babies to his parents Nick and Nina over Skype.

"They are gorgeous. Nina swears they have George's nose," Nick said in a phone interview with FOX journalist Tricia Macke. "Not both of them, one of them. The little boy looked like he had [George’s] nose. His little profile."

The 83-year-old said "the babies are beautiful," adding that they have "dark hair".

And Amal, 37, who Nick called "superwoman", is doing just fine following the delivery.

"She was just great," Nick gushed. "The babies are beautiful. Of course, she’s beautiful."

"She was telling us last week that she is as big as a house," Nick said. "Of course, for her, that's a very small house. But she's great."

George's publicist announced the birth yesterday and couldn't resist adding: "George is sedated and should recover in a few days."

When asked about meeting his new grandkids, Nick, a successful journalist, said he won't be rushing to London just yet.

"They have enough on their plate [without] some visiting grandparents coming in to London," he said. "So we'll leave that one entirely up to them".

Nick and Nina weren't always sure their son would ever settle down, but say that all changed when they met Amal.

"By golly, when we met Amal, we got that figured out in a hurry. Just as I did, George married up," Nick said.
